Been a S2000 owner for less then a week and I've babied it. Bought it in Vegas and drove it home to southern cali. Haven't went past 6500 rpm yet. And haven't even taken turns faster then I have on my accord... honestly I"m afraid. I need to take a drivers class on RWD... FWD I can thrash all day... RWD... I'm paranoid I'll lose it

 

it can bite you if you over-drive it and you aren't familiar with rwd tendancies. At anything approaching normal speeds it is totally stable and confident inspiring.

 

i feel your pain man. everytime i come to a corner i always think im gonna lose the car or something. i think i have OCD because now i cant stop getting alignments. ahh!!

 

just practice hard cornering in a deserted parking lot a few times to get the hang of it under throttle. The trick is come into a corner under steady throttle input, don't let off the throttle or brake in the corner and you'll be just fine. There is a LOT more lateral grip (with good tires) then you would believe.

 

Yeah lifting off mid corner is not something you want to do if you aren't ready for the oversteer especially in an AP1.

 

Had my baby for about 3 months now. Lemme tell you... the first day is filled with mystery and awe, touching and rubbing, gazing at the the digital rpm as it lights up and down, letting the top up and down in your garage...

and up to today, i still do all of that! lol Seriously, the S is one of my favorite cars out of all I owned. Theres too much to say here!

 

 

I agree as well... I want a second one... not to replace my current one... in Addition to my current one.... but i wont be able to afford that for a while

 

please make sure you have some good tires front and rear, if your rears are bald, you will lose it very quickly.

 

dont crash it please.

and congrats
